    Organic maps is just damn great, the default any time I need to use map for routes or just whatever on phone

    Also osm (and Organic maps using osm) has so much better coverage for smaller trails and forest roads than gmaps it’s crazy

      I like Organic Maps, but I am sometimes really surprised at the locations that are not on it that have been around in my city for several years. And I don’t live in a particularly small/unknown place. The routes can also be a little questionable at times, but I would say it works pretty well 90% of the time for me. Since I have small kids, I don’t depend on it if I’m at all questioning its ability to navigate me. But when I’m driving by myself I pretty much use it exclusively.

            1. Log in with your OpenStreetMap account in the settings.
            2. Long tap the place you want to add on the map.
            3. Pull up the pop-up that appears from below.
            4. Tap the second option (that prompts you to add a place or a company).
            5. Fill in as many details as you can get.
            6. Save.

            It will first be available only for you, then at the next update it will be available for everyone (as it updates the maps themselves form OSM).
